Description du lot

FROM THE SAND HILL COLLECTION. A very pretty and CHOICE example of this very scarce date. Only 13,000 were struck and only 175 are estimated to survive in all grades, 20 in all Mint State grades (per PCGS CoinFacts). Well struck up with semi-Prooflike, rich orange-gold surfaces. While the initial look is that of a higher grade, close inspection shows some very minor marks consistent with the assigned grade. PCGS 7, NGC 5. This was the most recent example to sell in auction, bringing $5,170 in the 2017 FUN auction. That was the first one to sell since March 2008! Clearly these do not appear with any frequency. The current Collector's Universe value is listed at $6,250; the next grade up will cost close to $10,000! Cert. Number 5267057 PCGS # 7557
